Wood Industries Visited By Chamber Industrial Group
The Rusk Chamber of Commerce Industrial Relations Committee led by Raymond Cooper toured two Rusk industries on a Monday afternoon. Ed Dickey, a pulp wood dealer, described purchasing and exporting about eight railcar loads weekly, averaging 25 cords of pine per carload, with about 30 local employees. His firm trades with Southland Paper Mill in Lufkin and operates branches in Neches and Elkhart, yielding roughly 250000 dollars yearly. The group also visited Gordon Sparkman Lumber, a pallet plant run for 5 1/2 years with about 10 employees plus contractors, using hard and soft wood. Sparkman sought a new site and noted relocation by August 15.
